The Banning home, Los Angeles, California
Visual Materials
An album with 21 photographs of "Captain" William Sanford Banning's residence, nicknamed "The Barn", located at 1012 West 31st Street, near Hoover Street, in Los Angeles, California. There are views of the interior and exterior, and photographs of the plans for the first and second floors; many of the photographs document details of the intricately carved furniture in the house. Exterior views show the famous and rare cast-iron "Cornstalk" fence, made in 1858 by Wood & Perot of Philadelphia, which originally stood at a New Orleans residence before being purchased by Banning in 1910. The house was demolished around 1930. Note: this house is not the Banning house in Wilmington that appears on the National Register of Historic Places.
